and after a long and thoughtful silence, he spoke:
over the past few weeks I have received a fair amount of criticism about my lack of recent contribution to negative273. honestly, I was surprised at the number of people who actually cared. but apparently there are people out there who would like to see me resume posting, perhaps even on a regular basis. but you might be asking yourself, is such a thing even possible? is there any force in the world that could bring michael to post at least once a day?
there is one. one among you with the power to motivate even me. one whose skill is nearly unrivaled and whose weblogging style rouses in me the spirit of competition once more.
you see, for six months I have carried the burden of shame. yes, it was exactly six months ago today that I lost that fateful battle. but I can carry this weight no further. I must reclaim my honor.
aaron beckerman, I challenge you once again. Im sure you remember the rules:
there will be 2 (two) Contestants: michaeldixon and Aaron Beckerman.each Contestant must post to their respective websites at least once a day.
the first Contestant who fails to post will be the Loser; the other will be the Winner.
the Loser must pay the Winner 2 (two) Dollars.
as you can see, the stakes have been doubled. yet so has my resolve. for it is only through battle that I might erase the shame that I have brought upon myself and my family. and I must not fail.
so mr. beckerman, if my weblogging prowess does not frighten you, accept my challenge on your website, and the contest will begin. I look forward to meeting you in the glory of combat once again.
